Show Me The Way
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Every night I say a prayer, in the hopes that there's a Heaven
But every day I'm more confused, as the saints turn in to sinners
All the heroes and legends I knew as a child, have fallen to idols of clay
And I feel this empty place inside, so afraid, that I've lost my faith
Show me the way
Show me the way
Take me tonight, to the river and wash my illusions away
Please show me the way
As I slowly drift to sleep, for a moment, dreams are sacred
Close my eyes, and know there's peace
in a world so filled with hatred
That I wake up each morning, and turn on the news, and find we've so far to go
And I keep on hoping for a sign, so afraid, I just won't know
Show me the way
Show me the way
Bring me tonight, to the mountain and take my confusion away
And show me the way
And if I see your light, should I believe?
Tell me, how will I know?
Show me the way
Show me the way
Give me the strenght and the courage
to believe that I'll get there someday
And, please, show me the way!
Every night I say a prayer
In the hopes that there's a heaven
